Biography

Born in Los Angeles, Will began acting at age 10 in 1988. He adopted his middle name, Estes, as his stage name, rather than his real last name, Nipper. During 1988 and 1989, Will did many commercials and guest appearances on Network television shows, including such popular shows…more

Will had a couple of roles in TV shows, but all of them were canceled after a few episodes, of which Meego (1997) was one. When he got to his 5th TV show, when he was 19, he became a regular on Kelly Kelly (1998).

For his upcoming movie The Dive From Clausen's Pier, Will learned how to eat and dress like a quadriplegic so it was more realistic. Kevin Murphy, the technical advisor for the movie helped him prepare for his role (Murphy has lived with the same kind of injury for 20 years).

Will got the part of the running boy, Tommy, in Bon Jovi's music video "It's My Life" because he worked with Jon Bon Jovi in "U-571." He was impressed enough with Will that he didn't have to audition. And also, Will did most of his own stunts in the video.

Will: I think education is one of the greatest tools for most kids not only to expand their book knowledge, but their ability to experience new things--I think it opens more doors than any other experience I can think of.

Will: I wish I knew at 14 not to put much thought into what other people my age said to me, cause we were all looking for the answers. So I wish I knew that other people really don't know any more than you do!

Will: I've always been an animal lover. I've grown up with dogs my whole life. I think that is what helped me get the role on Lassie, I was comfortable around the dog, where many of the kids were afraid or intimidated by Lassie.

Amazing Actor!!

Hey, Will Estes is amazing actor, and I would be happy to work with anytime, either if I was not good acting. Cause I know that he would help. I wanted to say great job with your character Jamie in Blue Bloods, I think that Jamie and Will are like the same in way. Hope everything goes will. I will keep watching the show. And I really like the character of Jamie. He is type of person I might she marrying one day.moreless

I love Will Estes!!!

Will Estes is so amazing. He is such a good actor, but he has horrible problems with stupid people cancelling his amazing shows. Plus he is so cute! Any time I hear that Will will be on a show, I always tune in or tape it. He just has this charm, that you have to fall in love with him. My favorite role of his was probably on American Dreams as JJ, before he went to Vietnam. He changed afterwards. But when he was in the battles, I would always bite my fingernails thinking he would die, but alas, JJ came through for us. Here's to hoping the great and talented Will Estes has better luck finding a show that sticks around.moreless
